24 LC 1958
I got my 1958 LC on Dec. 30th 2024 and I would have to say its one of the better Toyota's I have owned. I have had 7 Toyota's over the years. I plan on doing some simple upgrades but most are going to be to just make it look good as I really don't do to much off-roading except for when I go hunting.

So far have done the following:
265/70-18 Falken Wildpeak A/T4's
20% Tint all the way around
Tailgate Light
Husky Liners Front and Rear Seats
Fitcamx
New wheel center caps

Future Upgrade:
Front Bumper
Light Bar
Upgraded Fog Lights

Well today I decided that I didnโ€™t like the relay/fuse box layout, so I installed an Auxbeam Slim 6 panel. I recently installed a Victory 4X4 3/4 roof rack and some Diode Dynamic rock lights on it. My Diode Dynamic SS3โ€™s came in and I installed them too.

Did you consider the 275/70/R18 Wildpeaks?
I'm still debating between the 265 and the 275 size.
I did but honestly I donโ€™t do any heavy off-roading and the 10 lbs per tire weight difference just didnโ€™t justify me going any bigger. Plus I will probably add 40 lbs of accessories so in the long run it will be a wash.๐Ÿ˜‚ With these I am averaging about 18.6 to 18.7mpg
 
There are no pics on their sight regarding wiring. Does it come with a plug? Where did you wire it in?
I got the one without the wiring kit because I had already installed a light there but I liked this one. You can message Obisan3D on here and he will answer your question regarding wiring.
 
on a 1-5 scale, how complicated to install those?
It might be a 3 as you do have to feed a wire through an existing rubber boot in the top of the rear hatch. I got one of these and he helped a lot with not having to take both ends of the boot off. You just have to be patient when working it through. Here is a video of how the wire is ran. The light is not the same but its the same process for this one.
